About the game

What you do in a play session

If you've already ventured into the grim lands of Kingdom Death: Monster, you know every detail counts. And for the most dedicated collectors, these two promotional items are a real find! The optional settlement event 'A Strange Spot' brings a new challenge to your settlement, while the 'Belt of Gender Swap' adds a touch of humor and customization to your survivor with a unique armor piece. These promos, originally part of the 'Pinups of Death' set, were created to celebrate the pin-up miniatures, which, while stunning, are not directly used in the main gameplay. Think of them as a visual and thematic easter egg for the most fervent fans. The addition of 'A Strange Spot' can introduce new event dynamics to your settlement, requiring strategic decisions that might impact your colony's future. The 'Belt of Gender Swap,' on the other hand, is a gear item that can be equipped by any survivor, adding an element of visual customization and perhaps even some rule quirks, depending on how you decide to integrate it into your campaign. It's worth remembering that, like most KDM expansions and promos, full integration and understanding of nuances might require a good grasp of the base game and, possibly, translations, as promotional material doesn't always come with subtitles in all languages. If you're looking to expand your KDM experience with exclusive items that celebrate the game's art and peculiar universe, these promos are an interesting addition to your collection, especially if you appreciate the aesthetic of the pin-up miniatures.

Do I need the base Kingdom Death: Monster game to use these promos?
Yes, absolutely! These are promotional items that expand the base game, so you need to own Kingdom Death: Monster to be able to use them.

'A Strange Spot' is an optional settlement event that can bring new challenges and decisions to your settlement. The 'Belt of Gender Swap' is a gear item that your survivor can equip, adding a touch of customization.
